Question by heatherette:

What are the benefits of investing in stocks?

I am very interested in investing, but I really don't know how or what the benefits. How does it work in simple terms? I guess I need to read "Investing for Dummies" or something. Basically, if I put towards a stock, if the company is still around in 10 years will I make a bunch of money? Or if I invest in something like Hannah Montana, will I not get anything in ten years since she won't be popular?
